Moving body from part back to assembly level part

[nyang]

Is it possible to move a body in a part, back to the part that it originally came from?

I first created a body in an NX part (Part A). While editing Part A, I used the assemblies tab to create a new component (Part B), and selected the body to be "exported" to part B. So Part A is the assembly that contains Part B, which has the body + associated features used to create the body.

Now I am wondering if it is possible to bring the body + associated features back into Part A. I am aware that promote body/wave geometry linker can be used to bring the body into the assembly level - but I don't think it brings the original features used to create the body, into Part A's part navigator. Is there a tool that does this?

I am using NX2000 if that helps.

try, Menu- file export - part
pick the body, select retain parameters, and send it back to the other part.
this will take all its creation features with it

Have you also tried the COPY PASTE of the feature? That might retain the parameters?

Or,: Create new component + select the objects to move to the new file. ( and delete originals.)
